Imagine you are a wine shop owner. Oh yeah! Other than free unlimited access to liquor, it is indeed a very profitable business. Sorry to interrupt that gravy train, but that’s not what we are talking about. Wouldn’t you be pleasantly surprised if a sexy girl walks up to your shop asking for beer? Well, how shocked would you feel when you realise that sexy girl is none other than a popular actress. Millions where left amazed when Raja Rani star Nayantara was caught on camera buying beer from a local Tasmac wine shop.

The video uploaded on Youtube, went viral as people could not believe their eyes that it was indeed Nayantara, who was buying alcohol. While you were wondering what Nayan was doing at a local wine shop, a little birdie told us the truth behind the story. Apparently, for a scene in Vijay Sethupathi’s Naanum Rowdy Thaan, Nayantara had to buy beer from Tasmac. But someone from inside the shop, privately filmed Nayan visiting the wine shop and leaked it on the internet, making it go viral.

Now that the cloud surrounding Nayan’s beer buying act has lifted, this interesting scene from Wunderbar productions’ Naanum Rowdy Thaan has raised the expectations from the film. Check out the video here…

Rumour has it that Vijay is in talks with the Raja Rani director Atlee for his next film

One film old Atlee Kumar, made everyone sit up and take notice with his debut film Raja Rani which was a rollicking success at box office. While everyone is anticipating the young director’s next move, a little birdie tells us that Atlee has approached Illayathalapathy Vijay with a script.

Grapevine has it that Vijay, who is busy shooting for Chimbu Devan’s fantasy drama, took some time off to discuss story with the Raja Rani director. If the rumours are to believed, the actor has liked the script and is likely to don the khaki uniform again. That’s right, speculations are rife that Vijay will play a cop in Atlee’s next.

Over the past Vijay has donned the uniform in films like Pokkiri where he plays a cop, Thuppakkiwhere he plays an army man and Kavalan where he plays a bodyguard. If all goes well, we might see Illayathalapathy Vijay in police avatar in his 59th film.

The Raja Rani director’s project will go on floors after Vijay completes shooting for another film

The project will go on floors after Vijay completes shooting for another film.

“Vijay will be directed by Atlee soon. The project will go on floors after Vijay’s film with Chimdudevan that’s expected to go on floors in November,” a source close to the film’s producer, Kalaipuli S. Thanu, told IANS.

“Atlee is also expected to get married before the start of the project. The rest of the cast will be finalised soon,” the source added.

On the festive occasion, Bollywoodlife brings you three K-town celebs who would celebrating the first Eid of their lives

While the devout Islam followers would break their month long holy fast, three known faces from Tamil industry will also join in the Eid celebrations this year. As you gobble down some delicious sheer korma, we bring you a list of South Indian stars who had converted to Islam, celebrating their first Eid this year:

Yuvan Shankar Raja

In February 2014, the second son of musical maestro Ilaiya Raaja, music composer Yuvan Shankar Raja, had accepted that he follows Islam. The star music director had tweeted,“Yes, I follow Islam and I’m proud about it. Alhamdhulillah.” Anjaan music director also informed that his family supported his decision and his Islam conversion has nothing to do with fellow music scorer AR Rahman. This would be Yuvan’s first Eid, so we will keep tabs on what Kollywood composer is up to in this festive occasion.

Jai Sampath

Raja Rani star Jai was the next one to follow Yuvan’s suite to accept Islam in April. Though the actor has not officially converted to Islam, he is said to be strictly following the month long fast this year. Though Jai, who is quite active on twitter, has never mentioned about embracing Islam, it is sources close to him who claim so. Will Jai open up on following Islam this Eid?

Monica

Popular heroine Monica who has performed in various Tamil and Malayalam movies had revealed that she had converted to Islam this year. The Jannal Oram diva had even changed her name to MG Rahima and had announced retirement from films. Monica admitted that she took this decision because she liked principles of Islam. The actor who is planning to tie a knot soon, will be celebrating her first Eid this year.

Jai-Nazriya starrer has failed to impress the viewers

With two big film’s Siddharth’s Jigarthanda and Karthi’s Madras out of the way, the stage was set for Aascar Ravichandran’s Thirumanam Ennum Nikkah to cash in big time at box office. But seems like lack of top stars and film’s jaded publicity has hampered the film’s stake at the box office.

The inter religion love story went off to a slow start with only 50% occupancy at the theatres. And those who have watched the film do not seem to have great things to say about it. Thirumanam Ennum Nikkah has received flak from critics and masses alike as the film failed to impress the audience. Both Jai and Nazriya who were riding on previous successes of Vadacurry and Raja Rani respectively, were expected to give the film much needed star power. Judging by the average turn around at cinemas, one can say Jai-Nazriya’s star power has failed to work magic.

With word of mouth negative reviews, the film’s performance is expected to go further down. While the biggest beneficiary of Thirumanam Ennum Nikkah‘s failure is Dhanush’s VIP, which is running housefull as it enters it’s second week today. With no real competition at box office, it is an opportunity lost for Thirumanam Ennum Nikkah.

Filmmaker Magizh Thirumeni promises a never before seen avatar of the romantic hero

Filmmaker Magizh Thirumeni says he will present Arya, known for doing romantic comedies, in a never seen before avatar in his upcoming Tamil action-thriller Meegaamann.

“Arya didn’t go through any startling transformation because the role didn’t require that. But audiences will see an Arya they have not seen before. You’ll see a more subtle and manly Arya,” Magizh told IANS.

“I felt Arya would be an interesting actor to carry off the role. He may not have done an out-and-out action film, but he has done films that have utilised his potential. I felt I could give him an opportunity to attempt something he hasn’t done so far in his career and after working with him I have realised that he’s done justice to the role,” he added.

Shooting Meegaamann was a fun experience for the director.

“Working with Arya was absolute fun. There was nothing fake about him. I should also thank my producer for creating an ambience that made working so much fun. We as a team shot for over 100 days and we maintained the same energy level till the end,” said Magizh.

Produced by V. Hitesh Jhabak, Meegaamann, which is currently in post-production stage, also features Hansika Motwani, Sudhanshu Pandey, Ashutosh Rana, Anupama Kumar and Harish Uthaman in important roles.

The filmmaker says Meegaamann is a commercial actioner narrated from a new perspective.

“It’s a typical commercial action film, but what I’ve tried to do is reinterpret the formula used to make such films. I’ve taken some liberty by adding a refreshing new perspective. I’ve tried to keep it logical and realistic. In the hero entry scene, you wouldn’t find 10 tractors flying in the air,” he said.

Meegaamann is Magizh’s first film after underrated Tamil action-thriller Thadaiyara Thaakka.

“Thadaiyara Thaakka needed a popular actor to get noticed. But I don’t regret it because Arun did a fabulous job. The film was ahead of its time and I feel 10 or 15 years from now, the younger generation will see it as an Arun Vijay film,” he said.

“In terms of learning, I feel if you’re able to get the dates of a top hero, everything becomes easier. After that you wouldn’t have problems with the money flow and when there’s money, there’s a lot of creative freedom as well,” Magizh said.

He insists presence of a bankable hero helps in getting maximum screens when a film releases.

Rumour has it that sexy Raja Rani star will be playing a lead in low budget horror film

Nayantara’s second coming to cinema after her break up with director Prabhu Dheva has been spectacular. After tasting tremendous success in Raja Rani and Aarambam, the voluptuous diva seems to be in a mood to experiment with her roles. After giving commendable performance in Kahaani remake Nee Enge..En Anbe, rumour has it that the sexy kitten is going to venture into unchartered territory of horror.

Yes! The liitle birdie chirpped that Nayantara has given a nod to play as a lead in debutant Ashwin Saravanan’s horror flick tentatively titled Night Show. A source disclosed that , ”Since this is a small budget film, the makers were initially looking at low profile actresses. But when they approached Nayanthara, she immediately agreed after listening to the script, even though she is doing many star films right now. It is a very unusual horror film and the plot revolves around Nayan’s character and her relationship with a child.”

The Billa starlet is said to be sharing screen space with Aari of Nedunchaalai fame. Neither the actor nor the makers have confirmed the news as of yet. If the reports are true this would be the first time when Nayantara would be appearing in a horror film. The hottie has her hands full with Simbu‘s Idhu Namma Aalu, Jayam Ravi’s Thani Oruvan and Udhayanidhi Stalin’s Nanbenda.

Horror has always been a great genre for sexy ladies to impact the audience like never before for eg. Sunny Leone in Ragini MMS 2. It would be interesting to see if Nayan could manage to scare movie buffs with her histrionics. We will be eagerly waiting for Nayan’s Night Show.
